Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior
|
Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior (องค์บาก) (2003) is an action film from Thailand in the mold of "old school" Jackie Chan-styled kung-fu flicks starring Tony Jaa. Featuring amazing chase sequences and some bouts of intense, Bruce Lee-like violence, Ong-Bak was made entirely using "analogue," i.e., human power, for the stunts and effects, no CGI and no wires. The fighting style of the movie is all Muay Thai,a Thai kickboxing style, which is known for brutal attacks with elbows and knees.
Plot synopsis
In a peaceful village of northern Thailand, there was an ancient temple "Ong-Bak" with a great Buddha sculpture. One day, a criminal stole the sculpture's head. Ting, a young village boy played by Tony Jaa (Phanom Yeerum), was sent to Bangkok to look for the holy head of Buddha.
